A member asked:
In police academy. i have a mvp,bicuspid tricuspid valve, &slight electrical delay. is it safe to get tased for my certification (it's 5 seconds)?

Not sure: What you mean by a slight electrical delay (AV block, sinus pause, QT prolongation??), but I would not recommend being tased given this condition. Look to a cardiologist for this type of 'clearance'. Wouldn't want to develop cardiac arrest trying to get a certification.
